The rapid explosion of information and system/solution integration has resulted in many complicated systems that need people to manage them in an efficient and autonomous way. For example, we do need to have a good solution to get rid of the ''blue screen'' which appears in our computer when an operating system is dead. In a distributed data storage application or system, when one data storage device is out of order, the backup system should be automatically allocated and operated seamlessly. Even in collaborative e-business solutions, when a business process is interrupted due to business exceptions, an escalation process should be automatically launched to handle the business exceptions and restore the interrupted business process into automation mode. Autonomic Computing, proposed by IBM (www.research.ibm.com/autonomic/index.html), is trying to explore the solution framework and foundation to address those challenging issues by exploring the systems' capability for self-learning, self-healing, self-recovery, self-configuring, self-expanding, self-adapting, etc. The final goal of Autonomic Computing is to find ways to build an ''autonomic nervous system'' in the scientific research work and business solutions.
IJAC is the first academic research journal on Autonomic Computing that serves as a forum for individuals in the field to publish their research results as well as for interested readers to acquire latest development information in the field. IJAC is a high-quality double-blind refereed journal. As a research and engineering journal, IJAC, will facilitate communication and networking among Autonomic Computing researchers and engineers in a period where considerable changes are taking place in Autonomic Computing technologies innovation, and will stimulate production of high-quality Autonomic Computing solutions and architectures.
Objectives
The objectives of the IJAC are to establish an effective channel of communication between Autonomic Computing researchers, engineers, and policy makers. It also aims to promote and coordinate developments in the field of Autonomic Computing. The international dimension is emphasised in order to foster international collaboration in Autonomic Computing to meet the needs of broadening the applicability and scope of the current body of knowledge.
Readership
The journal provides a vehicle to help professionals, academics, researchers and policy makers, working in fields relevant to Autonomic Computing, to disseminate information and to learn from each others' work. Contents
